While the Chargers wide receiver wasn’t named AP Offensive Rookie of the Year, he received a top distinction Saturday night, named the Pepsi NEXT NFL Rookie of the Year. Fans voted for Allen on NFL.com.

It is appropriate.

During the season, the 21-year-old was voted Rookie of the Week all four times he was nominated. A third-round pick, he caught 71 passes for 1,046 yards and eight touchdowns during the regular season. The reception total and yardage were franchise rookie records.

Packers running back Eddie Lacy won the AP award with 35 votes. Allen received 12.
